Defective Cytochrome P450-Catalysed Drug Metabolism in Niemann-Pick Type C Disease.
Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease is a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disease caused by mutations in either the NPC1 or NPC2 gene. NPC is characterised by storage of multiple lipids in the late endosomal/lysosomal compartment, resulting in cellular and organ system dysfunction. The underlying molecular mechanisms that lead to the range of clinical presentations in NPC are not fully underst...
متن کاملNiemann-Pick type C disease.
A 4-year-old Afghan girl born to consanguineous parents presented with progressive neurological regression and hepatomegaly noticed after one year of age. The child had hypotonia, repeated unexplained falls and facial dyskinesia. Bone marrow examination revealed presence of storage cells suggestive of Gauchers or Niemann Pick. Confirmatory study by lysosomal enzyme from leucocytes was normal fo...
متن کامل[Niemann-Pick disease (type C)].
A 15-year old girl with slowly progressive gait and speech disorders, and with impairment of mental ability, is decsribed. The disease appeared 18 months before the first hospitalization at the Department of Neurology and Physchiatry for Children and Young People. Neurological and other examinations confirmed extrapyramidal and cerebellar signs, conspisuous knee and ankle reflexes, marked splen...
متن کاملNiemann-Pick disease type C
Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPC) is an autosomal recessive neurovisceral lipid storage with a wide spectrum of clinical phenotypes. At the cellular level, the disorder is characterized by accumulation of unesterified cholesterol and glycolipids in the lysosomal/late endosomal system. Approximatively 95% of patients have mutations in the NPC1 gene (mapped at 18q11) which encodes a large membran...
متن کاملDefective insulin receptor activation and altered lipid rafts in Niemann-Pick type C disease hepatocytes.
Niemann-Pick type C (NPC) disease is a neuro-visceral cholesterol storage disorder caused by mutations in the NPC-1 or NPC-2 gene. In the present paper, we studied IR (insulin receptor) activation and the plasma-membrane lipid assembly in primary hepatocytes from control and NPC1-/- mice. We have previously reported that, in hepatocytes, IR activation is dependent on cholesterol-sphingolipid ra...
